Bring your well-behaved pets (any species–large, small, unusual), on leashes or leads or in carriers, to the 4th annual Pet Blessing at the Church of the 49ers. This special event will be held Saturday, May 24, at 10 a.m. on the lawn of the church, located at Parrotts Ferry Road and Jackson Street in Columbia. Shade and seating are provided. The event is free and open to the entire community.

Each pet will be given a personalized blessing by Reverend Janet Russell and its human companion will receive a commemorative certificate. Stay for “Yappy Hour” – a time for treats for the animals and their humans – and have a portrait taken with your pet. Portraits are free for a digital image, or at cost for prints.
